VN Millennium Faria Lima

History

A development project by Vitaconi built by Hinesi, VN Millennium Faria Lima had its incorporation registered under R.03 in title deed no. 189.817, at the 4th Property Registry Office of São Pauloi, on 30 April 2019. The architecture is by Athié Wohnrathi with Arquitectonicai, and the landscaping by EKFi. The concept — two towers for distinct audiences on the same plot, with lobbies and leisure areas that never cross — was presented by the developer as the first of its kind in the city.

• Concept: two addresses within one. The Prime tower is for families, with large apartments, a tennis court and a clubhouse; Hype is for compact living and shared services, with studios, coworking, a communal kitchen and shared car and bicycle use.
• Curiosities: the common-area programme is the inventory of the sharing economy taken seriously — shared car, shared bicycle, shared vegetable garden, shared tools and parcel storage, plus two indoor pools with a 25-metre lane, one in each tower.

Architecture and aesthetics

Two towers on a single plot, with independent access from the pavement — there is no shared lobby, no shared lift, and each has its own set of leisure areas. The architectural authorship is split between Athié Wohnrathi, a São Paulo firm known for its corporate language and constructive precision, and Arquitectonicai, a purveyor of volumetry and colour out of Miami; the result is a pair of vertical volumes with a contemporary reading, set on a narrow-street plot a few metres from the Faria Limai axis. The landscaping is by EKF Arquitetura de Exterioresi, which treats the ground floor and the decks as an extension of the communal spaces.

Location and surroundings

Points of interest · distances in metres

Vila Olímpia: the address

Vila Olímpiai is the neighbourhood where São Paulo put work and nightlife on the same block. Rua Chilon is a narrow, residential street in the heart of the neighbourhood, two blocks from Avenida Brigadeiro Faria Limai and a few minutes from Avenida Juscelino Kubitscheki — that is, within the axis where the offices that pay the country’s highest square-metre price are concentrated, without being exposed to the avenue. Parque do Povoi is a few blocks away, Shopping JK Iguatemii two kilometres away, and the neighbourhood’s supply of restaurants and bars needs no introduction. It is an address of convenience: here the advantage isn’t silence, it’s the short distance.
